1. wait for judgement before condemning
Larry ,   LA (formerly)   (06.14.15)
Let us wait for the IDF to look into the matter before we believe the Arab side. We have seen the Arab distortions and the world is quick to believe the Arab lies; the IDF looks into the case and is fair. It is our duty not to judge but to wait for the IDF to look into it.

(06.14.15)
"Reality Show"!
3. Please note:
A Jerusalemite ,   Jersalem, Israel   (06.14.15)
" According to an IDF spokesperson, the incident in the video is, "known to commanders and will be investigated in depth." " Israel can be proud of it's honesty and the ability to accept the fact that some IDF soldiers do misbehave.
4. rocks thrown during riot.
rachel ,   here   (06.13.15)
Simple. Violence was happening. Also this is not the whole video. OBVIOUSLY the man pushed the limits to we'll passed breaking point.
5. why does the video jump?
rachel ,   here   (06.13.15)
Could it be there is a cut? Maybe the section with the man trying to grab the soldier's rifle? Also notice he is using a fist and moving to strike while the soldier is using an open hand. (Otherwise known as a slap. )
6. Violent Rioters have to be subdued!
Benny ,   IRAQ   (06.14.15)
NObody was beaten, only stupid terrorist ass kissers love to paint the scene & pour oil into the fire ! He was being subdued and hand-cuffed for acting ornery against armed soldiers who were trying to quell rock-throwing Arab idiots. The Israelis were quite restrained unlike the idiots posting lies here. It is a normal procedure when dealing with Arab thugs & the like. Try that in Saddam or Hafez country or Libya or Yemen. They would have broken his balls & hung him from a tree upside down. The Arab rioter was going into the soldiers and trying to steal the gun. The rioter, coming dangerously close to any policeman's face, should be quickly subdued, and arrested. He is lucky this was Israel not some looney Arab failed state.
7. Oh, those poor, poor Palestinians!
Benny ,   IRAQ   (06.14.15)
The Pals rioters must have been handing flowers to the soldiers while they were beaten. These poor "oh-so-innocent" Palestinians. They never threw rocks, molotov cocktails; they never slit the throats & killed 3 innocent young Jewish children. After all, they are all raised by "the religion of peace". They were not even rioting. They were all visiting their sick mothers at home, don't you know!? By the way, Why does Y-Net call it a beating when it wasn't -- In a BOLD screaming editorial style journalism "headline" when they can clearly see the culprit is the one harassing the Israeli soldiers who are guarding the homeland????? Should they let this stupid Pal throw stones & just watch him go crazy ?

Smart. Why do you keep acting ad a useful idiot. If you do not know the term look it up. Stalin would love you. You are such a faithful useful idiot.
9. THIS SQUAD OF IDF GAVE
LARRY ,   US ARMY RETIRED VET   (06.14.15)
this guy way too much slack. the take down should have been swift when he invaded there safety zone{ 3 feet.} most police in the west would have used more force .the IDF in this case reversed the use of it when the subject was on the ground. more Krav Maga training boys. good luck bless the idf
10. No more beatings if Arab accepts right of return to Mecca
Steve Benassi ,   Silver Bay, MN USA   (06.14.15)
11. Reality.
Birdi ,   Israel   (06.13.15)
The following has been reported here in Israel. "The Arab man had tried to steal a weapon from 1 of the soldiers, which if he had succeeded in doing, would have presented an immediate life-threatening danger to the troops, & clearly indicated his hostile intentions to harm them."
12. Learning from the 'enemy'
Bertram ,   London, UK   (06.14.15)
Israel continues its rapid descent from a position once admired for its modern, progressive, even humanitarian ideology to one where it is barely indistinguishable from other members of the barbarian club. A bit like the ending to Orwell's 'Animal Farm' : "the creatures outside looked from pig to man, and from man to pig, and from pig to man again; but already it was impossible to say which was which”.
13. 12.
Birdi ,   Israel   (06.14.15)
Thanks for comparing us to pigs. It takes one pig to recognize another pig!
